2 Month Update

Wow, I guess it's been a while since I wrote last! Bud is still loving his "school" and his friends and Louise really like having him there. He gets to read, sing, dance, play, and do crafts and coloring all day long. Louise even had a birthday party for him and I took cupcakes and partied with the kids. Bud got gifts and the kids loved the cupcakes. It was so fun to see him with his friends!

Now that he's two, Bud is a little more demanding and we're reminding him of his good manners. Potty training is going okay, we're still not pushing him to use the potty and he isn't bothered by wet or messy diapers/pull-ups so I don't think it's going to really work until he doesn't like the wetness. He occasionally tells us he needs to go and that's good enough for us.

Some of Bud's favorite songs right now are Down By The Bay, 5 Little Monkeys Jumping On The Bed, and Marsupial Sue (by John Lithgow). He'll just break into song whenever he feels like it and even gets most of the words in. :-)

Our big news right now is that BV got a job at the university hospital as a pharmacy technician! He starts in a week and a half and will be filling prescriptions and mixing chemo drugs. We're very excited he got a job with the U.

We're not sure what Bud will be for Halloween yet...but yesterday I found Nemo and Rolie Polie Olie costumes on Disney's website. Maybe we'll let Bud pick which one he wants to be. I have new pictures to add to his site from this past weekend and our trip to the appleless apple orchard. There was a freeze in May and all of the blossoms died, so we just roamed around the pumpkin patches. Just a minute after we pulled into the orchard Zach, Nicole, & Colin came in! I finally got some updated photos of the boys.

I will try to update this more often in the coming weeks!
